Anchors Away!

I still have to sew on the neck to this red dress. I wanted to take a picture of it and post it while I was in the mood. I have to be in the mood to do these things.

I like the ruffle on this dress. Both dresses are refashions from old t-shirts. They will look better on the models that are intended to wear and play in them. Knits are so forgiving and really take on a nice shape with little bodies in them. Isn't it nice to have some clothes that aren't just pink and more pink?

Happy Birthday Little Red!




Can you believe that she is 4 years old? How is that possible? She will always be my baby.
Yes, I made that dress for her birthday. It is my crazy floral creation. I couldn't resist.

Little Purse for Little Red

What is inside? Little pockets for Little Red's big collection of little objects.
Notice the sweet little flowers on the front? Little Red can't have a purse without flowers on it!

Teen Theme Thursday

Every Thursday I will share writings from my teen years. I will try to only embarass myself, which you will see isn't difficult. If you have anything to share, scan it and email it to me. You can be a ghost blogger. Wouldn't that be fun?

If you click on the writing/picture, you can open it in a different window and view the writing as clear as day.

Christmas T-shirts for 2010


I made the t-shirts for the girls for next year. Yes, that's right, next year. I got so busy that I forgot to sew some cute shirts for the girls this year. While the idea was fresh in my mind, I whipped these up for next year. I know that the shirts at Target are cute and cheap, but who wants to look like everyone else? These are originals for original girls.

Happy New Year!

It is a new year and I have new projects! Imagine that!?

Recently, I had the pleasure of cleaning out my stuff from my parents' attic. No worries, they are perfectly healthy but none of us want to clean it out at a later date.

My mother is a clean fanatic. However, she never threw out my papers, diaries, drawings, etc. She put them in a box- actually boxes, and up in the attic they went. I was so surprised to find all my creative writing, cards and diaries. I kept many diaries. Not surprising, I mainly wrote when I was troubled. It is a stroll through my teenage angst and emotions.

Why do you care about this? Get excited- I am going to share some of my entries with you. They are so horrible that it is humorous. If I wrote about you, I will white out your last name. Ah-relief for those that dumped me as a friend for a boy! Haahaa!

Obviously, I will still post pictures of my sewing projects. I completed many over Christmas that you all must see. You might be inspired!
